I'm assuming this spot on the D is a bit of a movable feast in terms of where he lines up. Listening to Pot Roast, it seems they are looking at several guys who can either line of on the DLine proper or in a 2 point stance.

The new staff has made great strides early with Dixon. Updated on Rivals:

...my hand is not raised.

Just saw a clip of an old play on ESPN w/Kugler doing the play by play...which is another thing I didn't know.

Had to put our Bichon down today. Tore us up. I’m only posting out of guilt. Many others have posted on here about this before. While I certainly felt sympathy for those, it didn’t dawn on me how hard it would be, until it actually happened to me. And this was a dog that came to us as a rescue of sorts. He was kind of a difficult dog, especially in the early going. Stubborn. But that probably goes with the hard life he had from time to time. He was just one of our gang who seemed to express his appreciation by, just wanting to be with us all the time. Sorry for the babbling rant. Mis the little SOB.

"In many of our conversations, I think one of the ways he got to turn the corner a little bit, he would continue to say, ‘Trev, it’s just not me, I don’t want that,’" Trev Alberts said. "It finally donned on me and I said, ‘Frank, what if I told you it wasn’t about you? What if I told you it was about the fans, and our fans want to?’ And that gave him pause.”

Here's more from Alberts' radio appearance:

In-state Bellevue West star WR Dae'Vonn Hall spoke with Rivals' @Clint Cosgrove over the weekend and gave the latest updates in his recruitment:

Awesome stuff from MJ Sherman today. Interviewed him in 2019 and was impressed then and I was impressed again this morning. Hit the link.

In all sports? First few games of 9U are in the books and these guys are massive losers. Not sure I can make it through July. They think they are the manager of the red sox.

Big difference from football and basketball. Its almost like round up some of the trashiest dumbest adults and told them they have to coach select baseball. Weird.

2025 Millard North athlete Caden VerMaas was offered by Iowa State tonight. According to our own @Greg Smith, the 6-foot, 195-pound VerMaas has been to two Husker practices this spring. He does own a Nebraska offer.

I've never been a huge baseball fan so definitely no guru here (only ever watched some Nebraska Baseball) but what gives with the random bunting by W. Bolt? Do you all think it's justified? I understand reasons for bunting like moving guys forward to get a guy in scoring position or throwing another team off a little but why does Bolt to it randomly when our bats are hot? I noticed in the Omaha, Creighton, Illinois1, Illinois2 and N. Dakota games our bats were hot for an inning or so and we were getting runs, then all the sudden or next inning Bolt try's bunting and it completely throws this good hitting team out of rhythm. I feel like W. Bolt is just like Frost in that he constantly needs to try and put his touch on the game and try's to fix things that aren't broke. Is this just coaching inexperience or just an ego thing with these young coaches?

Had a few key takeaways from today's post practice defense talk. Hit the link...

Here are the quick hits from Terrance Knighton and Evan Cooper:

Help! gbr

I enjoyed this closed captioning error:

Alberts is on his monthly radio show, and he announced former Husker head coach Frank Solich and his family will honored at the spring game.

I'll have a recap on Alberts' radio appearance later tonight.

DL coach Terrance Knighton, secondary coach Evan Cooper, MJ Sherman, Malcolm Hartzog and Omar Brown all met with the media after the Huskers' sixth practice today. We'll have more coming shortly with quick hits, takeaways and some feature stories.

Knighton was first up, saying his DL group has mostly been focused on working on the fundamentals thus far. He also discussed some of the EDGE types on the roster who are working with him and LB coach Rob Dvoracek. He named Sherman, Jimari Butler and Princewill Umanmielen as a few of the guys working with both coaches who can be a standup rusher and put their hand in the dirt.

Hopped on a video podcast with @Greg Smith and @Steve Marik after Thursday's defensive press conferences with Terrance Knighton, Evan Cooper, Omar Brown, Malcolm Hartzog and MJ Sherman.

We broke down our biggest takeaways, including Greg discussing Sherman opening up about his "anxiety" in leaving Georgia, Steve on an exciting potential role for Brown and me talking about the highly intriguing Jimari Butler – who Knighton has been impressed with through six spring practices.

Hey, everyone.

The Inside Nebraska crew will be at the open portion of this morning's practice, the team's fifth of spring ball. Same deal as last time — we'll get about the first 40 minutes to watch, from about 8:20-9 a.m. We'll post any updates, pictures or videos that we can.

Matt Rhule and 2-3 players will then hold a press conference after, and we'll have full coverage of that on the site today.

These numbers could change after the Spring. A few teams might add a transfer or two. I also added current transfer FBS starts to these numbers below. For instance, Luke Fickell brought his starting Center from the last 3 seasons with him.

1. Nebraska - 121 - Transfer Center Ben Scott arrives with 28 starts. Nebraska still leads all Big Ten teams with combined offensive line starts in Big Ten games only.
2. Wisconsin - 96 - Transfer Center Jack Renfro started 31 games at Cincinatti
3. Iowa - 82 - LT Mason Richman might be the 2nd best LT in the Big Ten
4. Purdue - 74 - Center Gus Hartwig is the Big Ten's top returning Center
5. Illinois- 54 - LT Julian Pearl might be top Tackle in the Big Ten
6. Minnesota - 29 - LT Aironte Ersery is a future NFL Player - Give Fleck some credit. Kid was recruited out of Ruskin High School in Kansas City. One of the worst HS programs in the KC area.
7. Northwestern - 11 - And their LG accounts for 9 of those 11 starts

Its impossible to predict the future, but Nebraska could seriously return all 10 linemen in their two deep for 2024 as well. Its quite possible that the QB taking snaps in 2024 could be play behind the most experienced Offensive Line in College Football.
